huh, i thought this was about the noarchs packages being symlinked to be 
available in both archs...

i have no troubles about the skype noarch package being in i586 nonfree repos 
only...

i think the best is in fact to have 32bit repos enabled in x86_64 installs, 
and having the GUI solve the problem with multiple versions of the same 
package (be they diff from preferred arch, or older versions)
